Parashat Korach

Dedicated Leilui Nishmat Abraham Ben Simbol A’h by Ricky Rudy and Family Parashat Korach Parashat Korach begins with Korach, who was from the tribe of Levi, confronting Moshe and Aharon together with Datan, Abiram, On ben Pellet, and 250 followers. “Vayikhalu al moshe ve’al aharon vayomru alehem rav lachem — And they gathered together against Moshe and against Aharon and said to them, ‘You take too much upon yourselves!’” They went on to say, “We are all holy and Hashem is wi
